What are far-infrared rays?

"Far-infrared rays"? I think, to the most people, the word "far-infrared rays" is not new.

They are a group of rays coming from the sun and, though invisible to the human eye, they exist just outside the longest wave among the visible rays, the infrared rays. They are also named "heat rays" as they transmit heat effectively. Or, they are figuratively called"Blessing of the sun". The blessing of the sun is, in fact, in the infrared rays. There are three kinds of infrared rays, that is, near-infrared rays, far-infrared rays and ultra far-infrared rays. Above all, far-infrared rays are drawing a wide attention in the field of medical science as the most effective wave for human being.

What is the effect of far-infrared ray bathing?

• Because they expand capillary vessels, they improve the flow of blood, leading to stable blood pressure.
• Because they enhance natural immunity, you become hard to be infected by cancer or contagious diseases.
• Because the activities of enzyme are normalized, the functional deterioration of each internal organ is prevented.
• The exposure to far-infrared rays stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system and, as the result of it, more of alpha waves come out and stabilize the autonomous nervous system, thus eliminating stress and bringing about pleasant sleep.
• More of cerebral hormone, which is five or six times more effective than morphine, is produced from the exposure to far-infrared rays.
• The recovery of a broken bone, injury, or scar after the operation will be made much quicker.

The origin of medical treatment with the use of heat can be traced back to ancient times and this type of treatment has been much used by various peoples in the past. Because of tremendous development of modern sciences, however, this time-honored approach gives an impression that it has been left behind somewhere. In this modern age, we cannot deny the fact that, in terms of environmental contamination, food additives, and residual agricultural chemicals and many others, the environment in which we live is in the worst condition which has been brought about as the result of excessive quest of comfort and convenience in our daily life. It is, however, a less known fact that, under such an condition, the lowered body temperature of human being induces many diseases.

When our body temperature is around 37 degree Celsius, the natural immune system in our body exhibits its maximum power and, if lower than 35.5 degrees Celsius, it is widely known that its immune power is reduced down to nearly half of its original effects.

"Far-infrared ray heat treatment" which is recently drawing a wide attention gets rid of heavy metals and wastes in your body by making full use of perspiration and improves blood flows by expanding the capillary vessels.

The ability to enhance natural immunity in your body by raising the body temperature through this far-infrared ray treatment is higher and also reduces stress more effectively than other heat treatments of this kind

In all these respects, you will find our "Far-infrared ray bathing-Hidamari" most appropriate for what you are looking for.
